In this first game in the Grand Theft Auto series you have three cities, with two levels per city. In each level you have a set goal for an amount of money to make, incresing with each level, and just five lives per level to get the score.

To gain money you can do missions, completing a mission increses your score multiplier, making each consecutive mission more and more profitable.

While some missions are only unlocked when previous missions are completed, the player has a total freedom in which missions to take, and when to take them.
